This is an Adobe Photoshop turtorial.

I made this tutorial to help deviants protect their artwork. This will place a hidden copyright and information within your images' properties. This tutorial shows how to create an action so that you can add file info in one click.

To see this as an HTML tutorial visit [link]

To learn how to put this information on your files by the mass using Adobe Bridge, see my other tutorial: [link]

Please if you find this tutorial helpful so that others have a better chance of seeing it! I'm not looking for the pageviews, I just want to spread the word!

Notes:
  • This has been tested on JPG images.
  • If someone does a Save For Web on the image, then the copyright information will be lost.
  • This will not prevent ripping - it only helps you with a hidden signature

Well both have their problems old and new, but scripts/patches and common fixes are easier to get for computers as the majority is always catered for : )

My name is on my photos anyway I've also been adding copyrights in my artist's comments.

I do hope people find this - it won't stop ripping, but it can help prove ownership!
